Complex of Ideas

Complex of ideas My hands smell like wood and, as I shout for a beginning, I pull myself out of me. The laughter is shaking inside, it slips from head to foot and climbs… I’m a young old man, for I have fed myself with old age… That is why I have muscles so loquacious, so wise, so mild… I always knew that love means whisper, smile, black and white… So what that I wear with me this complex of ideas like marsupials wear their young?

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
